nilfs2: fix gc failure on volumes keeping numerous snapshots
This resolves the following failure of nilfs2 cleaner daemon: nilfs_cleanerd[20670]: cannot clean segments: No such file or directory nilfs_cleanerd[20670]: shutdown When creating thousands of snapshots, the cleaner daemon had rarely died as above due to an error returned from the kernel code. After applying the recent patch which fixed memory allocation problems in ioctl (Message-Id: <20081215.155840.105124170.ryusuke@osrg.net>), the problem gets more frequent. It turned out to be a bug of nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy function and one of its callback routines to read out information of snapshots; if the nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy function divided a large read request into multiple requests, the second and later requests have failed since a restart position on snapshot meta data was not properly set forward. It's a deficiency of the callback interface that cannot pass the restart position among multiple requests. This patch fixes the issue by allowing nilfs_ioctl_wrap_copy and snapshot read functions to exchange a position argument.
